FOR FINANCIAL ADVISERS USE ONLY - NOT FOR USE WITH INDIVIDUAL INVESTORS.
CERTAIN RISK CONSIDERATIONS: The RBS ETNs discussed above (the "RBS ETNs")
involve risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt
securities, including a possible loss of some or all of your investment. The
level of the RICI Enhanced(SM) Indices must increase by an amount sufficient to
offset the aggregate investor fee applicable to the RBS ETNs in order for you
to receive at least the principal amount of your investment back at maturity or
upon early repurchase or redemption. The RBS ETNs and the RICI Enhanced(SM)
Indices do not provide exposure to spot prices of the relevant commodities and,
consequently, may not be representative of an investment that provides exposure
to the spot prices of the relevant commodities or buying and holdng relevant
commodities. The prices of commodities are volatile and are affected by
numerous factors. The RICI Enhanced(SM) Indices may include futures contracts
on non-U.S. exchanges and trading on such exchanges may be subject to different
and greater risks than trading on U.S. exchanges. Even though the RBS ETNs are
listed on the NYSE Arca, a trading market may not develop and the liquidity of
the RBS ETNs may be limited and/or vary over time, as RBS plc is not required
to maintain any listing of the RBS ETNs. The RBS ETNs are not principal
protected and do not pay interest. Any payment on the RBS ETNs is subject to
the ability of RBS plc, as the issuer, and RBS Group, as the guarantor, to pay
their respective obligations when they become due. You should carefully
consider whether the RBS ETNs are suited to your particular circumstances
before you decide to purchase them. We urge you to consult with your
investment, legal, accounting, tax and other advisors with respect to any
investment in the RBS ETNs.
The RBS ETNs are not suitable for all investors. You should carefully read the
relevant pricing supplement and prospectus, including the more detailed
explanation of the risks involved in any investment in the RBS ETNs as
described in the "Risk Factors" section of the pricing supplement, before
investing.

statement (including a prospectus) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) for the offering of RBS ETNs to which this communication
relates. Before you invest in any RBS ETNs, you should read the prospectus in
that registration statement and other documents that have been filed by RBS plc
